ARCHIVED - Threads that Ninjas post in getting extra attention?

Has anyone else noticed this?
I'll be flooding it up when I see a typical flood thread, that a Ninja posted in. It doesn't really matter what the topic is, everyone will suddenly post in this thread, quoting the Ninja or replying, etcetera.
My question is, why? Not that I don't like the Ninjas, but what makes their posts any more/less valuable?

Maybe you just don't see the dead ones because... they're dead. And you notice the mod's posts more easily because they're blindingly orange?
Or perhaps it's just me and I lack the "lightning-fast wit, professional-grade humor, scathing "mom" jokes, and biting sarcasm" that Foman has.

Because ninjas are different, and therefore special, and therefore popular. People like to talk to those who are popular because if they're liked by those who are popular their popularity will surely rise.
This is like asking why the area of the hallways in High School where popular kids hang out is the most crowded.

Oh look. A Ninja.
Didn't see this coming from such a thread...
